They seem to have come off an evo with little millage because I didn't even paint them, they only had little scratches. Idk what kind of pads they had but they were pretty much brand new so I kept them.

If I'm not mistaken Porsches come with brembos, no?

EclipseFL07 · September 14th, 2008, 05:04 PM

nice nice,

no porsches have their own kind of brakes, PCB's or just PB's - they manufacture them separately.

lil`Wolf · September 14th, 2008, 05:07 PM

Very nice ride man, rep4u.

espilce · September 14th, 2008, 05:22 PM

Really? I thought they were like ferrari, the calipers say ferrari but they are brembo (stamped on the caliper casting).

Offset is +30 and the spokes curve outwards, there's about 1/2" of clearance.

I seriously love these wheels, MUCH lighter than stockers.

I will eventually. Right now I'm thinking headers or lip, skirts, rear lip. Maybe redo my audio.
